The View tab is used to see a preview of how the page will appear on the site. Its primary purpose is to allow you to see how a page will appear in the context of the site templates without having to first publish the page live to the website.  However, you still have to SAVE your (archive, draft or live) page edits before flipping over to the View tab to see what they will look like.

Note that the view is automatically reduced by about 20% in order to reduce the likelyhood that backend users have to scroll to see the whole width of the page. 

You can actually browse within the View frame, since the displayed page is a real, live HTML page.  This does not change the active page in the Work Area.

The View tab has options to switch language when viewing content in a multilingual website.

Users that have access to this tab include:

· System administrators
· Content Managers
· Content Authors
